Hello everyone, I'm new to speedrunning, finally getting into after getting inspired by AGDQ, my first time seeing it was last winter and it looked like a lot of fun! I've been following the guide on the wiki and have the PP strats down pretty well, but was trying Pidgey strats when I ran into a problem after performing the Brock skip.

When talking to the Brock fan the game freezes (music still plays) and then at the point we should be in front of the gym there's just vertical gray and white lines and the game is officially frozen.
